2021 is approaching quickly and this is a time of the year when many of us start thinking about our New Year’s resolutions. The most common New Year’s resolutions concern health, fitness and other, lifestyle related aspects of our life, but many people make resolutions for their homes, too. Here are some for your roof:

• Regular maintenance – if you have neglected roof and gutter cleaning and inspections, it is time to start looking for a roofer and to schedule the two maintenance Littleton roofing sessions for next year. Call a roofer and hire the contractor to perform the professional cleaning and inspection of your roof in spring and in fall and to carry out the repairs deemed necessary after the inspections;
• Trim your trees – large trees that have branches overhanging the roof pose risks of roof damage caused by tree limbs ripped off by storms. Hire a landscape contractor to inspect your trees and to cut off any branches that seem old or weakened by disease;
• Keep your roof’s lifespan in mind – every roof needs to be replaced eventually. Roof replacement is a costly project and also one that should not be done in a hurry – if your roof is close to the end of your lifespan, start saving a little money each months for your new roof, even if the current structure is still in great shape.
